Key Features

• Single-cell 1S 3.7V LiPo Chemistry — This battery uses proven lithium polymer technology, delivering the high discharge rates and energy density that RC models demand. Single-cell packs are lighter and more compact than multi-cell batteries, making them ideal for weight-sensitive applications such as small RC aircraft, lightweight RC quadcopters, and compact RC vehicles.
• 800mAh Capacity — The 800mAh capacity provides sufficient runtime for most small-scale RC applications whilst maintaining a minimal weight footprint. This capacity is perfectly suited to RC models that operate for 15-30 minute sessions, allowing users to swap batteries and continue flying or running without excessive downtime.
• 35C Continuous Discharge Rating — The 35C rating means this battery can safely deliver 28 amps of continuous current (35 times the 800mAh capacity), providing responsive throttle response and snappy acceleration when needed. This rating ensures the battery can handle demanding flying manoeuvres, high-speed RC car runs, and rapid power demands without voltage sag or performance degradation.
• Pre-Fitted JST Connector — The factory-installed JST connector eliminates soldering requirements and incompatibility issues, allowing you to connect the battery to your RC model or charger instantly. JST connectors are industry-standard on small RC packs, ensuring compatibility with most lightweight RC receivers, speed controllers, and chargers.
• Ultra-Slim 7mm Profile — At just 7 millimetres thick, this battery pack slides into tight battery bays and confined spaces where standard battery packs simply won't fit. The slim design is particularly valuable for RC models with integrated battery compartments, small fuselages in RC aircraft, and compact RC quadcopter frames.
• Lightweight at 21.4 Grams — Weighing only 21.4 grams, this pack contributes minimal mass to your RC model, preserving flight characteristics, acceleration responsiveness, and overall performance. For RC aircraft and RC drones, lower battery weight directly translates to longer flight times and better handling.
• Soft Case Protection — The battery arrives in a protective soft case, which safeguards the pack during storage and transport whilst remaining flexible for installation into your RC model's battery compartment.

Technical Performance

This Radient LiPo 1S 800mAh 3.7V 35C battery pack represents solid engineering for the small-scale RC battery market. The 3.7V nominal voltage (ranging from 4.2V when fully charged to 3.0V at safe discharge limit) is the standard for single-cell lithium polymer chemistry, and the 35C discharge capability indicates a battery designed to handle sustained high-drain applications. The 800mAh capacity, combined with the 35C rating, permits continuous discharge of up to 28 amps, making this pack suitable for small brushless RC motors, high-speed RC servos, and responsive electronic speed controllers found in modern RC vehicles. Build quality reflects Radient's manufacturing standards, with internal protection against short circuits and overcharge, though users must employ a quality LiPo charger with balance charging capability to maintain cell longevity and safety. The JST connector is securely soldered to the battery terminals, and the pack is encased in a flexible polymer wrapper to prevent puncture and internal cell damage. This battery will deliver approximately 10-20 minutes of flight or running time depending on the specific application and throttle usage, making it a practical choice for RC modellers seeking extended session capabilities through multiple battery swaps.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this Radient 1S LiPo battery suitable for RC beginners? — Yes, this battery is beginner-friendly. The pre-fitted JST connector requires no soldering, and the lightweight design suits many popular beginner RC models. However, beginners must understand that LiPo batteries require a dedicated LiPo charger (not included) and proper storage in a cool, dry place. The 35C rating provides forgiving performance that won't punish inexperienced throttle control, making this pack ideal for learning.
• What RC models is this 1S LiPo battery compatible with? — This battery is designed for small-scale RC applications including lightweight RC quadcopters, small RC drones, micro RC helicopters, racing drones, and small RC cars or RC buggies that accept 3.7V single-cell packs. It is also suitable for RC aircraft, FPV racing drones, and any portable device requiring 1S LiPo power. Always verify your RC model's voltage requirements and connector type before purchasing.
• Do I need a special charger for this LiPo battery? — Yes, you must use a dedicated LiPo battery charger with balance charging capability. Standard battery chargers and USB chargers are unsafe for LiPo packs and may cause fire or explosion. LiPo chargers are widely available from RC retailers across the UK and should be considered essential equipment alongside this battery.
• How long will this 800mAh battery last during use? — Runtime varies based on your RC model and throttle usage, but expect 10-20 minutes of typical flying or running. High-performance RC applications with sustained full throttle may deliver shorter runtime, whilst gentle flying or low-speed RC operation may extend it. Having multiple batteries allows continuous RC sessions by swapping packs between uses.
• What does the 35C discharge rating mean? — The 35C rating indicates the battery can safely deliver 28 amps of continuous current (800mAh multiplied by 35). This high discharge rating ensures the battery can power demanding RC motors and maintain voltage stability during acceleration or aggressive manoeuvres, preventing the voltage sag that degrades performance in underpowered batteries.
• Is this a genuine Radient battery? — Yes, this battery is supplied by RC Model Shop, an authorised Radient retailer. You can trust the authenticity and quality of every battery we stock, backed by our customer service and expert knowledge of RC products.
